General Condition Help

One of the most heartbreaking illnesses we ever have to watch our aging parents suffer through is congestive heart failure, or CHF. CHF is a condition in which the heart can't pump enough blood to the body's other organs.  According to the American Heart Association, most people with mild and moderate congestive heart failure can be treated. Proper medical supervision can prevent them from becoming invalids. One of the major comforts you can provide your aging parent is the ability to live at home with CHF, rather than be placed in an assisted living facility. While your parent may have to rely on home health care, living at home will allow him or her to be as comfortable and independent as possible.
